The Citi Scholarship Program

Ren.Udacity 9:45 AM

Hi scholars! @everyone

I am excited to announce that we've launched a Mental Health Toolkit to support your wellness. This can be leveraged by anyone but it is especially curated with underrepresented identities in tech in mind, including but not limited to: Black, Latine, women, and LGBTQ+.

Although there are resources that can be leveraged by anyone, we want to be as inclusive as possible. We would love any suggestions and additions from you. Just let me know!

Regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, orientation, economic status or ability, we want you to feel supported and know that you belong in tech.

Check out the toolkit today.

Hey, @everyone

You’ve probably heard this during the Citi event that took place in June, but we wanted to remind you that Citi will be opening 17 positions solely for this scholarship’s graduates. Yes, you won’t be competing against any external candidates! Isn’t that just amazing?

So, keep on learning and keep the spirit up. We will be providing you all with updates on when applications will open. Best of luck, folks!
